The BU light switch is just a push button switch that screws into the transmission.
When you shift into reverse, the button is activated.
Put a self powered test light on it's two terminals and adjust it in ONLY enough to activate the lights.
If you screw it in too far, you will not be able to shift the car into reverse.
